#tridevi

नवरात्रि की शुरुआत देवी दुर्गा की आराधना से की जाती है, 9 दिन का व्रत रखा जाता है। जबकि गीता अध्याय 6 श्लोक 16 में कहा गया है कि व्रत-उपवास करने अर्थात् भूखे रहने से कभी भक्ति सफल नहीं होती।

Shyama's mundomala when I was making it looked like a bunch of gems in those old adds 💀🤌 and even the hands look like coloured strips lol...

Okay, but imagine if the Tridevi sharing one braincell meant They act as a hivemind...

And I half expected Kali's hair to whip Saraswati in the face when She zooms in

When Draupadi had married the Five Pandavas, the Kuru family had to accept it and considered the DrupadKanya as pure, because she was born from literal fire. And if anyone used to raise even one word towards her, then their own Rajkumari would raise her bow and sword at them.

But when Arjuni had married Dwarakadish Vasudev Krishna, the Kuru elders had raised questions on her virtue, purity and dignity. Dhritarashtra, the blind idiot, said it loud enough for everyone to hear.

"Arjuni, how could you even think of marrying a woman, let alone marry two people? Do you know how much this shows of your impurity? We acceptd Draupadi's marriage as she is born from fire. But you...we are doubtful about you!" Arjuni was surprised, yet she had also expected it.

"...I agree, Arjuni. All of us think you should take the Agni Pariksha to prove your pious nature." Agreed Gangaputra Bhishma. Everyone agreed. Even the Raaj Maata, the mother of the Pandavas, Kunti, added her own two cents. "I too, in my opinion, see this as a better option. Because I can't seem to have an impure daughter." Some gasped, yet agreed. Shakuni and the Kauravas smirked and gave manic grins.

Krishna and Draupadi tried to argue but were stopped by their wife. Arjuni, who was looking down, looked up directly in the eyes of everyone present, her own silver-blue eyes being indifferent. "If this is what everyone wants, then i shall agree to this. If i am impious indeed, then i will pass on and attain freedom. And then no one would have to have an impious woman as their family member."

Draupadi tried to retaliate again and Krishna squeezed his Parthavi's shoulder, in response of which Arjuni just smiled slightly and nodded at them. "If you wish to Maharaj, then we can do this today." Her voice monotone.

"Arjuni!—"

"Arju di ple!—"

"Jyeshtaa!—"

"Behena no!—"

"It is quite alright, Jyesht, Bhrata Bheem, Nakul and Sahadev." She gave the slightest smile as she ruffled Nakul and Sahadev's hair. Nakul hugged his elder sister.

"You have already suffered so much for us Di! You don't have to!—"

"Nakul, even mother thinks so." Phalgun broke the hug and carressed her younger brother's cheek. "It is alright my dear. Don't you worry about me." Nakul nodded tearfully, like how he used to when he was a kid and his elder sister used to tell him not to worry when something went wrong.

Arjuni sighed as she stood in between the half-built pyre. She joined her palms in a pranam as she prayed for Agnidev to bless her with his presence on the pyre around her, and prayed for thunder to fall on her.

Not even a minute passed when a large cascade of lightning fell on Gudhakeshaa, Agnidev made his presence known as well by making the pyre burst into flames. And the Rajkumari was soon erupted into flames, her body completey engulfed into fire.

Draupadi stood anxiously, Krishna was frazzled, the Pandavas tensed. Kunti looked like she didn't care. Bhishma tried to mask his worried face. Duryodhan and the older Kauravas were waiting impatiently. Shakuni was scoffing disapprovingly. Dronacharya was also trying to mask his emotions, while Karna and Ashwatthama thought that this was wrong, finally getting some sense into their empty brains.

Suddenly the flames shot up high in the sky, lighting up the area around them and the night sky, while the lightning still cascaded around with the sky being lighted up by their strikes.

And out walked someone gently. No wait...not someone...it was Arjuni...but...

But her form had changed. Her cerulean-silver eyes becoming more beautiful and more like a mixture of a swan's and a hawk's eyes, as well as her eye lashes larger. Her already beautiful form had became more bewitching, more sharp, more mesmerizing to the eyes. Her previously gorgeous ivory-blue saree had turned into a red and white saree, the colours mixed and faded into each other and the hem of her saree being extremely extensive. Her hair, which was previously in a braid, had now opened and had got longer and silkier, the ends of her hair still gently curved like before, and it flowed, spread along a large area, in the wind. And her face...it had turned more beautiful, if it was even possible, that is. She still had her chudamani on her hair and the hair accessory gifted to her by Draupadi to always keep a part of herself with her wife.

As she walked down from the stairs, everyone looked shocked at her. Krishna, though shocked himself, was flustered profusely.

Shockingly enough, Indradev himself appeared after Arjuni got down completely from the set of stairs.

"What is all this that i had to witness from the heavens, Maharaj Dhritarashtra? Kunti, do not even think that I do not have the knowledge of what you have put my divine daughter through!" Kunti shrunk under Shakra's words. "What is all this!? How do you even dare to question my beloved, angelic daughter about her dignity and virtue!?" Indra exclaimed, angrily.

Arjuni didn't want to interrupt her father as the God of Thunder glanced at his daughter and back at the Kurus, who cowered under his gaze. "Do you have any idea about her divinity? She is the incarnation of the Tridevi ! The incarnate of Lord Vishnu and Devi Lakshmi's ansh, Naari! And you all still dare to question her pious nature!?"

Kunti, Bhishma, Vidur and Dronacharya looked shocked to the core, while the blind fool of a King and Gandhari were stammering with their movements, horrified at what their children had put their niece through. The older Kauravas looked horrified, and Shakhni as well. The Pandavas looked surprised, and yet looked like they were blessed to have her being even close with them.

"How do you even dare to even think of such explicit things, you mere mortals!?" Devaraj yelled. "I have taken the decision of taking away my child away from such a family as my heavenly child does not deserve such a preposterous family!" He looks at his daughter but he hears the requests, pleas, and begs of the Kuru family.

Keshav and Agnisutaa rushed forwards, faster than anyone and beged Mahendra to not take their wife away.

"Please, i beg you Devendra! Do not take my Parthavi away from me!" Krishna begged.

"Please have mercy on her husband and wife, Indradev! Do not take her away, please!" She requested.

This was the first time the world had seen the reincarnation of Vishnu, the Lord of the Universe, Dwarakapati, beg someone. But Muralimanohar ignored all the stares.

"Pitashree..." came the soothing voice of the Tridevi incarnate as she touched her father's feet. "Please forgive them. I was the one who agreed to their order. They were only doubtful. It is not quite a problem for me. Please do give me your blessings." Arjuni looked up when she felt her father carressing her head. "Ayushman Bhava, Putri." He blessed his daughter.

Indra finally calmed down. "If anyone else questions my Parthavi's virtue, then they would face the end of my Sudarshan Chakra." Finalised Krishna, scaring the living soul out of everyone's bodies.

"I warn all of you, if you even think of questioning my child or even hurting a hair on her head, you would face the wrath of my Vajra. If one drop of tear even escapes from her tranquil eyes and then this would result the bloodshed of the Kuruvansh and a lifetime of thunderstorms above your ridiculous heads!" And then, after nodding smilingly at his daughter, he dissappeared from there.

However, Vishnu and Shivā work in mysterious ways, and thus, I am finally here on the Sanatana side of things, to interpret as I am blessed by the very Divinity I worship with and as my own heart.

Salutation to Gajanana, the remover of obstacles, the support of His devotees, and the One praised for His Knowledge and Wisdom.

Salutation unto HariHara, the primordial form of the Divine Hari and Hara, of Their Oneness and equality, who is the sole inspiration of my life and my Universe multiplied infinite times.

Salutation to HariHara Patni, SriUma, as I see Her, whose very presence in His heart tells me of stories that play the very ancient games of Leela.

Salutations to Vaani, the Goddess who is my inspiration, who blesses me with words and purpose, who is as dear to me as ever.

Salutations to Brahma, the Creator, the foremost father of all the Devtas and indeed all the worlds, the friend of HariHara and the husband of Medha.

Salutations to Skanda, the God of war, but much more, the Tamizh Kadavul, the Compassion of the world, who ever protects His devotees.

Salutations to Hanuman, for whom there are no words, but who is the dearest to the heart.

But why's Saraswati pink? (Is that Vacdevi?)

WHY HE LOOKS SO RED THO

Idk she doesn't have the veena so she might be vac devi or someone but I don't think the makers would just randomly put Vac devi in Tridev-Tridevi murti

I used this picture as a reference:

Parvati and Brahma would be the singers probably

OMG I'M LIVING FOR THIS????
